digging and climbing
So...Rainy Season is still here, but we've made a serious attempt to go climb mount Fuji. So this upcoming weekend me and 3 other people will set out to climb the second highest free-standing mountain in the world. We'll be a rag-tag team of mixed nationalities: Finnish, Japanese, and Canadian.
I'm very excited. It's a good thing I got so much exercise at the beach on Canada Day. I woke up the next day and it felt like I went to Billy Blank's Bootcamp. My entire body was so sore.
So here's what happened: The beach closed the public washrooms while we were there for some reason, and when the girls drove to a conveni to go pee, me and Remi found a shovel on the beach. So naturally, we started digging. When the girls returned we had a hole about a meter and a half deep. It was spectacular. We were standing in water about 30 cms deep when we were inside. But I guess all the pirate...er, I mean 'manly' work sure had it's price.
Here are some pics from the picnic on the beach:
Diggin' the hole! This is about half way...You can see the determined look in my eyes.
Me, Kazuyo, Erin, Michiyo, and Remi. Yuka is taking the picture.

Yay! Fireworks.
